well, I don't remember where I read this, and these are not my words,
Your crazy old divorced uncle is a Conservative. Your crazy young divorced aunt is a Liberal. I don't trust either when it comes to homeland security especially when they blame each other.
When it comes to security, I trust only one party, Libertarian party.
It's the same old panic and fear from the right - letting their emotions override their logic. Every little thing set them off and drive them to cower in the corner.
But... when it comes to policy to deal with the real problems, what do they do?? Oh yeah, they do what Obama is already doing.
Conservatives, how do they survive without liberals?
.
When have the dems EVER used logic?
Everything they say and do is based on emotion, fear and envy.
I suscribe to The Economist, but when reading it, keep an open mind that it's very European left-wing. It has an anti-Israel bias and consistently makes excuses for radical Islam. Part of the reason conservatives are "outraged" at the refugees or other issues is because liberals are in denial about the threat posed by Islamism.
If the Liberal Left was honest about the threat of Islam to Western society, it would not create an environment for the Conservatives to go into this panic mode that OP speaks of. It is a natural human reaction.
The only reason I had to leave the Left was because of their support for Islamic terrorism. The Left does so by making false comparisons between Islam and other religions, and as displayed by Obama, give Islam a free pass to continue its oppression of Women, LGBT, and religious minoritites (Infidels).
'KKK and Crusades are Christian, ISIS has nothing to do with Islam'. - Obama
BBM/Red to emphasise rhetorics repeated++ ~~ This has been repeated over and over again by FEAR Mongering types!! Hate to say..Repeating FEAR Fanning crappo$$a doesn't make it true..although the bottom feeders may lap it up!!

This is absolutely true. Panic defines the GOP. Pubs have a history of failure, a severely faulty narrative, and not a clue how to solve the problems which plague this country and the world, many problems THEY created.
They are reeling from watching our great President Obama continue to be a resounding success in spite of their efforts to discredit and thwart him. Their ""logic" is pure woo. They don't contribute to successes, only failures.

Honest, what would that honesty entail?
Current the current liberal administration is involve in anti-terrorist activities in 134 countries. Every Republican policy pronouncement is currently being done. The Obama administration has been far more aggressive at tracking and killing suspected terrorist than the previous administration.
But more importantly only only chronic bedwetters can actually believe that terrorist present an extensional threat to America. Even on Sept. 11, 2001 the murder of over 2,000 Americans did absolutely nothing to bring down government of the United States much less the nation as a hold. Outside of lower Manhattan the nation went about its daily business. Instead of the being so overwhelmed by the attacks, the response might have been better to pointedly ask, "is that the best you've got?"
Terrorism cannot now nor has ever been able to bring down a country. Terrorism is the tool of the desperate and powerless, treating it as anything else gives terrorist power than they don't have.
People revert to instantly attacking the other side when they are unable to defend their own party from scrutiny. I'd like to see someone prove to me that conservatives aren't fearful WITHOUT ranting about liberals.
Can't take seriously any opinion piece from those who were fine with such "panic" as the "war on women" and "they gonna put you back in chains" and similar anti-republican fear-mongering. They're just still carrying water for Obama... simple as that.
